Video to Account for More than 60% of Total Mobile Network Traffic in 2011

Video became the dominant form of mobile data traffic in 2010, accounting for more than 40 percent of the total volume in wireless networks worldwide, according to Bytemobile. With the rise of full-length and studio-quality videos and live streaming of multimedia content on mobile devices, as well as the emergence of two-way video communications, Bytemobile expects mobile data traffic to spike to an all-time high in 2011, when video-based content will account for over 60 percent of network traffic.

Personal video communications will dominate wireless network capacity, such that 10 percent of subscribers consume 90 percent of total network traffic.
